Huh.

So apparently, they all died from cholesterol.

Yes...that was a rather...ODD ending. I thought for second the television had gone on the fritz.

Yeah, I thought my DVR messed up. They did an excellent job of building the tension there at the end though.

"Yeah, I thought my DVR messed up."

What made me specifically think this is that twice this season... specifically and ONLY during The Sopranos, and always in the last 5 minutes, something or other HBO did caused my TiVo to lock up....

I don't think that is an appropriate show for little bulls such as yourself to be watching, Bully!

(Bizarre aside: My cousin Anthony played a minor recurring character on The Sopranos, Dante Greco.)

I thought for sure they'd die in a tragic teacup ride accident.

It was weird, but it did fit the overarching theme of the series. "The Sopranos" was always about the tension between the normal, suburban life and the ugly hateful violent junk beneath it that kept it afloat. A key question of the series was "would any of the Soprano family ever escape?" All of them had opportunities to do so, right up to the last eppy. Would there be a moral awakening, a breaking of the chain of selfishness and cruelty? Would even one of them escape the cycle?

The answer came in the final episode: "Nope, and please pass the onion rings."

Mmmm...onion rings and fatalism...mmmm...
